(Yesterday, 8:55 pm)Superman wrote It was never going to happen either way, as the older 59 plate Geminis are all expected to be scrapped when the electrics come in.
Assume it'll be the following leaving the fleet when the electrics arrive?
7501-7/9 - 8 buses
7514-6/8-21 - 6 buses
7557/8/60/62 - 4 buses
7601-8/11-15 - 13 buses
Total of 31, how many electric deckers are due again?
(Yesterday, 6:55 pm)Superman wrote The full list of 2 November fleet changes as follows:
2601 from Ashington to Arriva North West
2602 from Ashington to Arriva North West
2603 from Ashington to Arriva North West
3052 from Reserve Fleet to Ashington
Good luck to North West with those heaps, between the three of them there might be one which manages to make it there without a truck. Assume 3051 is staying at Ashington too - that hasn't been out in about 2 months.
7526 being the only decker to move to Ashington is mental too given the increase in deckers required on the Morpeth corridor (+3). 3 72-plate MMCs meanwhile going to crawl around on the Blyth routes, while a 11 year old E400 is sent for the X18 increase. Make it make sense.
